symmetry has equal color, shape, and size on either side of a design. While the
informal occult has unequal proportion.

excess paper around the design, place the design on the fabric, then pin at the corners. Make
sure your flatiron is at low setting before pressing it over an area of the design for a few seconds.
Lift the iron then move it to another area of the design. Remember not to glide the iron over the
design as this can ruin the design.
